Topic: [WTS] Raspberry Pi-Wallet cold storage device (Read 893 times)
Hmm, would there be any interest in this at a slightly lower price? I suppose I'll open it up to offers.
Hi all,
I have a brand new, unused Pi-Wallet up for sale. You can read more about what it is, how to use it, and how to adapt it for use with other cryptocurrencies at Pi-Wallet's website (http://www.pi-wallet.com). They currently cost €124.95 (+ shipping) new from Pi-Wallet but mine is just sitting there, cold and lonely, so I'd prefer somebody to get some use out of it.
Price: http://btc-priceimg.herokuapp.com/img/87.00 / €70.00 / £55.00 / $87.00 excluding shipping, payable in BTC.

Shipping worldwide for the cost of P&P, registered mail only. Escrow is essential.
Escrow fee to be split 50/50 between myself and the buyer, and I'd prefer to use John K.'s escrow service (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/john-john-ks-escrow-service-previously-known-as-johnthedong-141672).
Given the new account, for proof of my legitimacy I've sold over €2,100 worth of mining equipment on the litecointalk.org forums and my profile can be found here:
https://litecointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=19877 - I've referenced this thread in my advert over there for proof that I'm the same person.
Consists of:
- 1x Raspberry Pi Model B with case
- 2x Samsung 8gb SDHC Card
Software Used:
- Raspbian (debian based Raspberry OS)
- Armory (Most feature-rich and secure bitcoin wallet)
Things that are required to run the Raspberry Pi but are not included:
- HDMI cable
- micro-USB cable (for powering the Raspberry Pi)
- mouse, keyboard, monitor
It is brand new / totally unused so the SD cards remain sealed with the Cryptocoins sticker, as does the actual Pi unit itself.
At the very least, if you're not interested in using it as secure cold-storage you get a cool Raspberry Pi and 2 x 8GB SDHC cards!

What is Pi Wallet?
Pi wallet is a device for securely storing your bitcoins in an offline environment to protect them.
We provide a service of installing a safe bitcoin wallet client (Armory) on a small, hand-sized computer (Raspberry Pi) so you can securely store your coins without having to deal with the issues of setting all this up by yourself.
A lot of bitcoiners face the problem of how to securely store their bitcoins. Naturally they get to a point where they think about storing them offline to prevent others on the Internet from getting access to the coins. This often leads to the idea of setting up an old notebook as an offline storage or maybe even buy one for that purpose. However, this can be expensive and a real hassle to set up.
This is where Pi Wallet comes in! Pi Wallet is like one of these notebooks - just better:
- unlike a lot of notebooks Pi Wallet doesn't have a wireless connection
- with Pi Wallet easily fitting into your hand you save a lot of space and you can even take it with you easily if necessary
- unlike a notebook the Pi Wallet device can be easily separated from its hard drive, the SDHC card.
- you can take your coins wherever you want by just moving the card around
- Pi Wallet comes with 2 SDHC cards so you can always have the backup card stored on a safe place
- since Pi Wallet comes with everything already pre-installed, you don't need to set up anything except your wallet, which is done with a simple click
- there are videos available on pi-wallet.com which explain in detail how to use Armory so you won't have to read up on it
- with Armory you can have a copy of your wallet allowing you to create receiving addresses and unsigned transactions and check your balance on an online computer running Armory without having to expose your private keys
Some people might think about using a paper wallet for backup purposes instead of an electronic device. However, paper wallets usually show private keys in plain text. Therefore, whoever gets your paper wallet will have access to your coins. With Pi Wallet using Armory, wallets can be encrypted with a password securing your coins even if your SDHC card gets stolen - and since Pi Wallet comes with a backup card you can just put it in, enter your password and send your coins away. Additionally, this allows you to easily leave a backup card with someone else. It will be secured by your password and when you get it back you can easily access your coins.
Additionally you can always create as many paper backups or USB backups as you want.
